The benefits of Meditation

Mediation is something that a lot of society today has gotten away from. Mediation allows you to clear your mind from all of the crazy stuff going on in your life and just get away from the continuous bombardment of ads and other useless garbage that people sell us with. Mediation is simple and it only takes 30 minutes of your time to get it's "full effects" I enjoy mediating every morning when I wake up. I typically do my stretching routine and then relax and close my eyes. Sometimes I'll play frequencies or relaxing music to help relax, but I think it's better to be alone with your thoughts. It appears today that we have a problem with facing ourselves and that's why we listen to music, TV and whatever else you want to add to the list to get away from ourselves. The problem is you will have to face yourself and your thoughts sooner or later. Might as well as cope with them what you don't like and what you like and mix them together like a painting to create what you want. Mediation is often linked to the Buddhist religion which is purely self and spiritual. People tend to rely on false people as "Gods" and blame "Gods" for their problems. God has turned into a scape goat in many ways. If that's what you have to do that's fine there's nothing wrong with believing in "God" but get in touch with yourself before you seek others in guidance. Give it a try and see how it helps you with stress and the craziness in your life.

Be what you want to be, do what you want to do, speak to who you want to speak to. The only thing holding you back is yourself you can't set limits. When there's limits then there's doubts.

5 things that are detrimental to health

1. Not eating isn't going to make you skinnier, it will actually cause you to bloat and make your body hold on to more fat. This is because the body goes into something called "starvation mode" Your body doesn't know when it will be fed next so it hangs on to fat to keep it functioning.

2. Not drinking water to have more veins. This is dumb because your body needs water to grow. Your body is mainly made of water why would you starve it from that? It's stupid. If you want veins decrease body fat, or take amino acids which increase blood flow.

3. not getting 6-8 hours of sleep. This effects your thinking process, causes mood swings, and your body wont grow if it's not getting enough sleep. Sleep deprivation destroys your health all around and makes you feel bad the next day in most cases relying on caffeine is no excuse.

4. Not making your meals before going to work. If you don't make your meals your more than likely going to eat garbage at a fast food restaurant. To avoid this prepare your meals for each day on the weekend and place the meal in plastic containers with labels. This will make you more organized and help you with eating healthy through the week which will make you more lively.

5. Avoid foods that contain a lot of sodium and high fructose corn syrup. High fructose corn syrup is hard for the body to digest and is bad for the liver. When you eat to much sodium it makes your blood pressure go way up. Salt also works on your kidneys which makes your body hold on to more water.

mind over matter

How do you achieve mind over body, mind over matter. Think of ways that you can better yourself, without limitations within reason. The mind has no bounds.

Fat isn't permanent,  neither is being unhealthy. Your choices reflect your results

Life

It's truly amazing how many people go around accusing, assuming, and attacking others based on their own interpretations and not by what or who the person really is and or does! So many people seem to have such an issue with everything everyone else does, but they never take time to look at themselves and critic their own actions, thoughts, and feelings! Wouldn't it be amazing if people would worry about themselves, and stopped going around trying to make everyone else believe, think, and feel as they do (as if they are some God send to us all, and know the only way there is to find inner peace even though they themselves lack it)! So in other words worry about your freaking self, and stop assuming you know me or anyone for that matter! Maybe if we all started to worry about ourselves and leading by example (not just talking about it, and acting like we are), then others would follow too and we could begin to create the peace most of us seek. The only way peace will ever exist is once we start to worry about changing ourselves for the better, and then we can begin to change the world for the better by working together.

L-arginine facts

L-arginine is great for pre-workout it's the supplement that is in every pre-workout. This is what get's you those big vascular veins to pop out and gives you the pump you want!  I usually use 3-5 grams several times a day, but don't go over 10 grams. Also don't mix with other amino acids because it may compete with other amino acids. Here is a list of facts  L-arginine is good for!
